Daniel Vincent, principal songwriter and producer of cult UK post-progressive band The Resonance Association, has released a new EP "In Sleep And Waking Dreams" via his personal blog, for free and immediate download.
An accompanying message on his blog simply states: "as a thank you to everyone who has supported me this year, either by buying CDs or downloads, coming to see TRA, liking things on Facebook, retweeting status updates or just by saying nice things⦠this is for you"
Speaking to mrs.vee recordings about his new EP, Daniel stated: "I'm always excited to put out new material, but in this case it feels extra special. The new songs I'm working on are really close to my heart, I'm going to be working very hard this coming year to make an album that will really blow people away".
The EP follows on just months after The Resonance Association's epic fourth album Heliopause, which received glowing coverage in revered progressive rock journal Classic Rock Presents Prog as well as high praise from the band's small but devoted following.
All four tracks on the EP were written, performed and produced by Daniel at his home studio in London, UK.
Opening track "Take One" features an old song playing back through the wow and flutter of tape distortion, offering a moment of reflection on the past before welcoming the new. The second track "Lost For Silence" echoes the heavier end of the TRA spectrum, leaving the listener reeling as the unsettling clatter of "Never Leave The House" takes the mind on a journey. The title track closes the EP in fine style, with vocals once again hinting on the transition from one state to the next.
